Hooray! Congrats on a working SE/30! And thank you for detailing your steps here - they're now available for everyone ever needing a sanity check for their own SE/30 issues.

Congratulations on figuring everything out! And thank you very much for the writeup - this will benefit more people for sure.

Oh, wooooow! This takes me back! More specifically it takes me back to taking turns with my brothers on my dad's 512k

Fantastic guide and writeup! Thank you!

This looks SO good. I believe I've seen bits of this project elsewhere on the 'net - Mastodon maybe? At any rate and impressive mod and a perfect use for a non-working Portable shell.

Nice! Not often something new comes along for us weirdos who like tinkering with alternate OSes on these old beasts.

That card plugs into the PDS slot on the Macintosh SE. Correct - the SE, and not the SE/30. They look similar, but the cards aren't compatible. Installation is illustrated here: https://archive.org/details/asante-maccon/page/n31/mode/2up

Let people know where in the world you're located - makes it easier to find out if someone is close :)

This is a really helpful chart, thank you! There are ways to read this from the schematics available, but this is perfect for quick lookups

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum! Don't see many new projects with spinning drives these days - especially not 10k ones!

Holy moly! I'm speechless! And intrigued!

Just wanted to leave a note saying this is exactly the sort of project I love. Recreating a dear memory. My first computer experience was on a 512k, later an SE with a Jasmine 40MB external drive. I know the craving to recreate exactly that environment.

Wow, I've never seen such a thing. Really interesting!

Whoah! This is fantastic! This unlocks SOO many possibilities.
